Pivot chart Dimensionality error

[carolin01]

Hi,

I´ve been working on the following statement within a pivot table. It is working in this way:

= num(If((Dimensionality()=0),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

//If((Dimensionality()=1),

//(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = //{'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

If((Dimensionality()=2),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))))),$(vInteger))

//)

but it is not working in this way when I :

= num(If((Dimensionality()=0),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

If((Dimensionality()=1),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

If((Dimensionality()=2),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))))),$(vInteger))

)

I believe that the mistake must be really small, something that I overlook right now...but I can´t find it...Does anybody see it?

Many thanks for your help!

Can you try this may be:

=If(Dimensionality() <= 2,

Sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>} NettAmount$(vCurrency)),

Sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency)) )

Hi Carolin,

I think one of your close parentheses at the end of your expression is in the wrong place.

try this:

= num(If((Dimensionality()=0),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

If((Dimensionality()=1),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

If((Dimensionality()=2),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency))),

(sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency)))))),$(vInteger)

)

Hi Marcus,

thank you this was correct The last bracket hat to be behind the last vCurrecy and not vInterger.

I am still not sure why you are complicating the expression by having three conditions when one can do?

This won't work:

=Num(If(Dimensionality() <= 2,

Sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OverallTransactionDate = {'$(=vToday)'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>} NettAmount$(vCurrency)),

Sum({$<Next7DaysTotalHIS ={'1'}, OrderPhase_Desc = {'HISBACKLOG'}>}NettAmount$(vCurrency)) ), $(vInteger))

You are right, this should work as well! Probably I made it so complicated because I didn´t know what I wanted first. It´s good to have both now and helped me to understand Dimensionality much better
